I need to do a numeric calculation based on CSS properties. However, when I use this to get info:

$(this).css('marginBottom')

it returns the value '10px'. Is there a trick to just getting the number part of the value no matter whether it is px or % or em or whatever?

This will clean up all non-digits, non-dots, and not-minus-sign from the string:

$(this).css('marginBottom').replace(/[^-d.]/g, '');

UPDATED for negative values
